Unbeknownst to him, as Du Fei turned around and looked at himself, Zheng Xiang suddenly felt a chill rush from the base of his spine to the crown of his head, a primal fear from the depths of his soul.
Seeing Zheng Xiang frozen and speechless for a long time, Ge Zhenfei pointed at Du Fei and said, "Is something wrong with your ears? Didn't you hear our Young Master Zheng tell you to stop?"
This guy had been racking his brains to please Zheng Xiang ever since he received a few words of praise from him.
Seizing this opportunity, he wouldn't let it go.
"Wash your mouth before you speak, lest disaster strike from your tongue!"
Du Fei glanced at Ge Zhenfei. He despised these kinds of people who bullied others by relying on their connections.
With his own men all around, Du Fei dared to be so defiant. Ge Zhenfei immediately flew into a rage, "Damn it! You think you're something, don't you? Believe it or not, I..."
"Scram!"
Du Fei let out a low growl. Ge Zhenfei felt his legs go weak, and he actually knelt down on the spot.
Everyone around was stunned.
Ge Zhenfei, who had been arrogant and overbearing just moments ago, had meekly knelt down after Du Fei's single command to "scram." What was going on?
Zheng Xiang looked at Ge Zhenfei, his face extremely awkward.
"Young Master Zheng, I, I just lost my balance, I..."
Ge Zhenfei turned around and saw Zheng Xiang's expression, immediately trying to explain.
But he stammered as he spoke, and anyone could tell it was a lie.
"Where did that guy go?"
When Zheng Xiang's gaze shifted away from Ge Zhenfei, he was shocked to find that Du Fei had already disappeared.
At his question, the others present finally realized that Du Fei had left at some point without them noticing.
"You two good-for-nothings! Didn't I tell you to stop him? How could you let him run off like that? You're utterly useless!"
Ge Zhenfei rushed to the two security guards at the entrance, scolding them fiercely.
Perhaps it was because he had lost face in front of Zheng Xiang earlier, he wanted to vent his frustration.
The two security guards lowered their heads and said nothing.
But in their hearts, they cursed Ge Zhenfei countless times.
This guy had been so scared that he knelt down himself earlier, and now he was blaming them. He was truly shameless.
...
"Brother, where did you go just now?"
By the time Du Fei returned to the hot spring, Du Yunyun and Xu Qianqian had finished playing and were gathered around Liu Shishi.
Seeing him approach, Du Yunyun asked.
Du Fei said he had gone to the restroom and asked if they wanted to soak for a while longer.
All three shook their heads. Hot springs weren't something one should soak in for too long; the time was about right.
Since none of them wanted to soak any longer and the time was also about right, Du Fei suggested they all head to the changing rooms to get dressed and then go to the restaurant for a meal.
Half an hour later, the group gathered at the entrance of the hot spring and walked towards the hot spring hotel's restaurant.
"Holy crap! What a coincidence, running into that guy even here? Are you kidding me?"
Just as Du Fei and the other three were about to reach the restaurant, Xu Qianqian saw a table of people inside and couldn't help but curse.
As she spoke, they had already entered the restaurant.
"Qianqian? Why are you here?"
As they entered the restaurant, Zheng Xiang, who was sitting and chatting animatedly with two women, stood up in surprise.
Xu Qianqian looked displeased, "Why don't we just skip the meal and order room service instead?"
But before they could leave, Zheng Xiang had already hurried over.
"Qianqian, I even spoke to your aunt and uncle on the phone. They didn't say you were coming here to play. It seems we're truly destined to meet."
Zheng Xiang wore a faint smile, glancing at Du Fei covertly as he spoke.
Xu Qianqian said impatiently, "Who is destined to meet someone like you? I feel disgusted just seeing you!"
Zheng Xiang, already feeling guilty, turned pale when he heard Xu Qianqian say she felt disgusted seeing him.
"Qianqian! Did this guy say bad things about me to you?"
Zheng Xiang pointed at Du Fei, "Damn it! Are you doing this on purpose?"
Zheng Xiang's sudden outburst towards Du Fei stunned everyone present.
Xu Qianqian was even more confused; what did this have to do with Du Fei?
"You'd better take your hand back, or you'll face the consequences!"
Du Fei said coldly.
Judging by Zheng Xiang's demeanor, he must have thought Du Fei had told Xu Qianqian about him being alone with two women in the private hot spring earlier.
However, Du Fei didn't need to explain his actions to him.
"I'd like to see what consequences there will be today!"
Earlier, in the private hot spring, Zheng Xiang had thought Du Fei was scared and had left on his own.
So, his arrogance grew even more rampant now.
Just as Xu Qianqian was about to speak, a figure flashed before her eyes.
"Ah! My hand!"
Zheng Xiang, who had been so arrogant moments ago, cried out like a pig being slaughtered.
The finger he had pointed at Du Fei was now held in Du Fei's grip.
As Du Fei slowly tightened his hold, Zheng Xiang doubled over.
"What are you doing! Let go of Young Master Zheng immediately!"
Even though he had lost face in front of Zheng Xiang earlier, Ge Zhenfei was still nearby.
In a flash, seeing Zheng Xiang subdued by Du Fei, he immediately signaled to several security guards in the restaurant to surround Du Fei.
"Go grab him!"
Seeing Zheng Xiang's face turn increasingly grim, Ge Zhenfei directly ordered his subordinates.
He had originally wanted to go himself, but thinking of what had happened before, he was still a bit apprehensive.
Two security guards rushed forward.
Bang, bang.
To their surprise, Du Fei, without even turning his head, unleashed two kicks, sending the charging security guards flying several meters.
Crack!
Du Fei directly broke Zheng Xiang's finger.
He was sweating profusely from the pain, but his scream was stifled as Du Fei gently touched his throat, rendering him unable to make a sound.
"Remember this! Don't challenge my patience again, or I can't guarantee what I'll do next!"
Du Fei leaned close to Zheng Xiang, who was so scared he collapsed to the ground.
Although Du Fei's voice was soft, to Zheng Xiang, it sounded like a death knell.
At this moment, Du Fei standing before him exuded a palpable killing intent, causing Zheng Xiang to tremble uncontrollably.
As for Ge Zhenfei and the other security guards, after witnessing Du Fei kick a security guard several meters away, they stood rooted to the spot, too afraid to step forward.
After speaking, Du Fei stood up and returned to Liu Shishi and the other two.
At this moment, a subtle change occurred in Xu Qianqian's gaze as she looked at Du Fei.
Du Fei's domineering display just now was incredibly cool! This was the kind of man she envisioned in her dreams.
She truly envied her best friend, Liu Shishi, for having such a boyfriend.
Fortunately, there weren't many diners in the restaurant, so it didn't cause much of a commotion.
As soon as Du Fei and the other three sat down, Zheng Xiang, supported by Ge Zhenfei, left the restaurant.
However, none of this concerned Du Fei, who was now preparing to enjoy the meal with Liu Shishi and the other two.
